[orca-list] mouse over not working

[lsmithso hare demon co uk]

Hi:

I'm trying to get mouse over working on Orca. I'm not sure what the
official title of this is, but when I hover over say a desktop icon,
or a menue item in any app, I'd like to hear the text under it spoken.

I've enabled 'Speak object under mouse' in Orca preferences, but mouse
over greets me with silence. Orca otherwise seems to work fine.

Muy config is Orca 3.2.1, Oralux Voxin, Ubuntu 11.10, unity 2d
desktop.  . I realise this is rather old but I'd rather not upgrade
unless I absolutely have to.

I restarted orca with debug and found the following in the log. Dunno if its relevant:

vvvvv PROCESS OBJECT EVENT object:text-changed:insert vvvvv
OBJECT EVENT: object:text-changed:insert               detail=(0,1238,Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pyatspi/Accessibility.py", line 100, in getInterface

NotImplementedError




Thanks for any help you can give.
